"As I was talking about the dry flies. This is imitating the flies that you see flying around the top of water, bodies of water, rivers, lakes, even in gutters after a rain storm. There are three different phases of a fly. Up here we go the phases of flies. They typically start out as a nymph fly which is a under water fly. They shed there shell and they go to the surface and they become a actual flying fly. Where they get up in the air and they start flying around. They will mate actually in the air and then release their eggs. There eggs go down to the bottom of the water. That is when it turns in to a nymph fly. So that's why you heard me talk about nymphs and dry flies. What we are going to do now is try fishing with what we call an elk hair caddis fly. The are four main of different flies there is the caddis flie, the mayfly, the stonefly, and midgets. Those are the type of flies that we fish with. Whether if it is Eastern or Western United States.
